Extractions: M ossi (also see related Bwa, Bobo and Nunuma) The first Mossi Empire was founded by invaders from northern Ghana. Today, the Mossi are the largest tribe living in Burkina Faso. They number 2,2 to 3,5 million and are the only tribe of Inland West Africa to have a centralized governing body, in addition to clans and professional corporations led by elders known as zaksoba . They are an ethnically diverse people divided into two social groups. Political power resides in nakomze , whose ancestors invaded the region in 15th century and subjected the various autochthonous groups living there. From these arose the tengabisi , a heterogeneous population whose kinship groups have provided the religious leaders of the Mossi to this day. On the north, one encounters a region of Sahelian desert steppes, then further south a zone of tree-field savannas, which gives way to forestland in the deep south. The greater part of the population lives off agriculture and cattle breeding. They grow millet, sorghum, maize, sesame, peanuts, and indigo. Cotton, introduced by the French during the occupation, is also cultivated over large stretches of land. Since the beginning of the century, the family has not been regarded as part of a community, since custom required that, immediately after circumcision, the eldest son leave to live independently from his father. Similarly, the young wife had no status whatsoever until the birth of her first child, which gave her the right to visit her parents. She did not raise her children, who were entrusted to older wives. On the other hand, at the death of a farther, the son would receive the wives and fields of his father.

Extractions: Sacred Texts Africa Index Previous ... Next CHAPTER IV: THE HEAVEN COUNTRY AND THE HEAVEN PEOPLE THE Zulus appear to have recognized a sky-god distinct from Unkulunkulu. This seems to strengthen the probability that the name Unkulunkulu is not, as Bleek thought, identical with Mulungu, since the latter name for the High God in some languages actually means 'sky.' "The king which is above," Umpengula Mbanda informed Dr Callaway, " we did not hear of him first from white men. In summer-time, when it thunders, we say, 'The king is playing.' And if there is one who is afraid the elder people say to him, 'It is nothing but fear. What thing belonging to the king have you eaten?'[1] This is why I say that the Lord of whom we hear through you we had already heard of before you came. But he is not like the Unkulunkulu, who, we say, made all things. But the former we call a king, for, we say, he is above; Unkulunkulu is beneath."[2] They seem, however, to have been somewhat hazy on the subject, for another informant said that they were the same, Unkulunkulu being "the creator of all things," who is in heaven, though at first he was on earth; but " he went up to heaven afterwards." This would connect with the Yao legend, alluded to in our introductory chapter, that Mulungu used to live on the earth, but afterwards ascended to the sky by means of the spider's thread. The idea appears to be tolerably widespread, and is found outside the Bantu area. The Nandi myth of the Thunder leaving the earth and taking up his abode in the sky (impelled by the misconduct of the ancestral Dorobo) is perhaps an echo of it.

Extractions: Organisation and Structure of The Buganda Kingdom Adminstration The over 30 years of Uganda's Independence have been characterised by civil wars and dictatorial rule which has severely disrupted the country's cultural, social and political institutions thus, throwing the population into unprecedented impoverishment. Now, vigorous attempts are being made to re-discover our past and the Buganda Kingdom is spearheading a Cultural and Development Revolution within the state of Uganda. For, even after a century since the Europeans explored the Dark Continent, Africa remains the least developed continent with its people living in abominable conditions, without democratic institutions that can tackle its numerous political and social scourges. The abandonment by Africa of its traditions and political cultures, on the advent of the European civilisation, and the adoption wholesale of foreign practices vulnerable to corruption and authoritarian rule, has made the continent lag behind, despite its enormous Natural and Human resources. Yet, the old political order of coercion and manipulation, that disregards the Human Rights and SelfDetermination of the people, is still dominant on the Continent.
